Got it!
Thx alot! Good work!
Like the app, as simple as it can be, I don't miss anything. If I read it right you also wanted to implement a next-trackbutton in the notify. To me, that'd be the only thing further needed, but I dont know if its possible and if its gonna be easy to make a good difference between tapping it to go to the mediaplayer and tapping 'next track'.
Perhaps repeat track could also be usefull.
That's one more opinion for ya guys

am i blind?
or is this app missing a menu where it can be deactivated?
it's great if you're browsing or doing something on a desktop where the media player widget isn't on...
but i would like to deactivate it for some time too
(couldn't find a button in the statusbar and no point in the settings :/ )

No, there is no option to deactivate it...I pointed that out too earlier...that maybe it could be in settings somehow, or in the statusapplet.
I would hate to uninstall it, I love it!

Thanks for the app, wonderful job
Wouldn't it be better/cleaner/easier (w/e) to use this instead of the notification method?
Edit: Well it would disable the click to open media player function.
Just thought of another thing, might look at the code and edit/learn to edit C code
Thinking of adding a LED notification (traffic light pattern that doesn't repeat itself), sure it wouldn't help with the original idea of the program but it might be considered as an improvement.

It'd take time, but since it would be in the applet and explicitly started by user, consuming time is no problem. Do you see problems with this approach?

How does the media player widget handle this? I guess it creates the album art of the current playing song on the fly.
Couldn't this be done by the 'now playing' daemon also? Or would it create a too long delay before the notification is displayed? I wouldn't mind an extra second or so delay before the notification is shown.
